I'm probably about 1 month out from having surgery-- and I'm evaluating everything that goes in my mouth at this point-- from a counting calorie perspective but also from a "will this fit on my life going forward" perspective. Today, we grilled for the first time this spring, and it hit me that I'll likely be in full liquid and soft food stages during peak grill season. Any suggestions for things I can put on the grill? Likely there are things for soft foods...? If not, I'll easily deal because compliance to new diet comes first, but it would be nice to have some social time with my friends and family.... Ideas?

Grilled whole fish is always tasty. I had the same thoughts and will be on soft foods as well.

What kind of fish do your recommend?

Red Snapper...here is a link for a recipe I enjoy: http://www.foodandwine.com/recipes/roasted-whole-red-snapper
The Caribbean is delicious!

To cook on the grill just wrap in foil and grill for 25 minutes.

One of the fishes that we use is Sole and it cooks very quickly wrapped in foil. Spray the foil always with cooking spray so it won't stick to the foil.

Any kind of fillet would work cooking in foil.

I can't remember if shrimp is on the list for soft foods but if it is you can grill them too.
